Which one of the flowing pairs of plants structures has haploid number of chromosomes?

  • Megaspore mother cell and antipodal cells

  • Egg cell and antipodal cells

  • Nucellus and antipodal cells

  • Nucellus and antipodal cells


B.

Egg cell and antipodal cells

In angiosperms, a single diploid megaspore mother cell matures within the ovule. Through meiosis, it gives rise to four megaspores (haploid). In most plant, only one of these megaspore divides three times by mitosis and produces eight haploid nuclei enclosed with a 7 celled embryo sac. One nucleus is located near the opening of embryo space in the middle of embryo sac and is called polar nuclei, two nuclei are contained in cells called antipodals, located at the end of the embryo sac, opposite the egg cell.

Nucellus is centrally located mass of thin-walled parenchymatous cells covered by integuments in ovule.
